20140215099 | Systems and Methods for Providing a Wireless Computer Control Link - Systems and methods are provided for wirelessly controlling a client computer system from a host computer system. A HID class command is received from a host computer system that is generated by an application executing on the host computer system in order to control a client computer system using a first wireless transceiver device that connects to a USB port of the host computer system. The HID class command is transmitted across a wireless channel using the first wireless transceiver device. The HID class command is received from the wireless channel using a second wireless transceiver device that is connected to a USB port of the client computer system and is configured by the client computer system as a HID. The HID class command is sent to the client computer system in order to control the client computer system using the second wireless transceiver device. | 07-31-2014 |
20140092268 | Eye/Head Controls for Camera Pointing - A setting of a video camera is remotely controlled. Video from a video camera is displayed to a user using a video display. At least one eye of the user is imaged as the user is observing the video display, a change in an image of at least one eye of the user is measured over time, and an eye/head activity variable is calculated from the measured change in the image using an eyetracker. The eye/head activity variable is translated into a camera control setting, and an actuator connected to the video camera is instructed to apply the camera control setting to the video camera using a processor. | 04-03-2014 |
20130265231 | Gaze Based Communications for Locked-In Hospital Patients - Effective patient-centered care in a hospital relies heavily on the ability of patients to communicate their physical needs to care givers. If a patient is unable to speak, he has limited means of communicating at a time when he needs it the most. The embodiments presented here, generally referred to as EyeVoice, include unobtrusive eye-operated communication systems for locked-in hospital patients who cannot speak or gesture. EyeVoice provides an alternate means of communication, allowing hospital patients to communicate with their care givers using their eyes in place of their voices. Simply by looking at images and cells displayed on a computer screen placed in front of them, patients are able to: answer questions posed by caregivers; specify locations, types and degrees of pain and discomfort; request specific forms of assistance; ask or answer care related questions, and help direct his own care. | 10-10-2013 |
